An A9X Club member once counted up the differences between a:-
5 litre ss hatch and the same thing with the A9X option and apparently came up with over 130 differences.
hey darky i dont know about the car m8 but i can pick a 130 differences between the a9x owner and an ss owner
Yeah and about 130 000 differences in their bank account.

Cheers for the info, had to sift through a bit, but if I got my LX off the showroom floor like my LJ, I would have recorded these prefix translations for sureSLR Sports Luxury Racing
SL (sedan) Super Luxury
SL (hatch) Sports luxury
SS Super Sports
A9X, it's a simple option code available ONLY on the SLR5000 and SS 5000 meaning performance package.
A9X was officially an option, not a new model, but in effect, it was really a seperate model. Once the A9X option was released at the end of August 1977, the SS5000 and SLR5000 in manual ceased to exist as an option, you could only buy the A9X version. Having said that, a very small number of SLR5000 manuals were made after the end of August. To add to that, you could only buy the 5litre engine in the sports models, SS and SLR, however, again a very small number of SL hatches were made with the 5litre engine from the factory.
Steven, I think rodomos joke went over your head there, he's refering to the usual experts who's mate of a mate owned brocks A9X that was raced at Bathurst and Brocky delivered iot to his front door complete with a packet of Marlboro and a carton of VB, but what most dont know is it was really a turbo six thats why he really won, oh and it was on NOS too. I'm sure you know what I mean.
